Olsen: Scored opener

City lose 1-0 and now must travel to Denmark in two weeks and put in a far better performance to go through. Mike Turner said just before full-time: "If City throw this away the season looks even worse than it did last week. We are in major trouble, doubt we can attract the best players without European football, as we look dodgy if reports on finances are true. The bluff bid for Cruz fooled no one!" Sorry to say you lost Mike, let's hope City do better in Denmark. Thanks for everyone's views tonight.

46 Midtjylland re-start the game.

Mike Singleton says: "City will come back in the second half and win it 3-1, not the best start to the game and a bit of a shock from a team that should not be scoring against the Blues, City are obviously missing the strike power up front. COME ON CITY!!!

Ashley Hesk says: "I really hope city up their game in second half, Manchester city have put their supporters through enough heartache and after the last week we can't lose this game.

City go in one down. They started slowly but came back into the game and were unlucky not to equalise through Sturridge. They need to do much better after the break.

Teams - Manchester City manager Mark Hughes has recalled Vedran Corluka and Martin Petrov to his starting line-up.

Corluka looked set to join Tottenham only for Hughes to block the move while Petrov missed the victory against AC Milan at the weekend because of a knock.

Tal Ben-Haim has also been included against the Danish league leaders following his summer move from Chelsea.

Short of options up front with Jo, Benjani Mwaruwari and Darius Vassell all absent, Hughes has paired Daniel Sturridge with Felipe Caicedo in attack.

Man City: Hart, Corluka, Richards, Dunne, Ben-Haim, Elano, Johnson, Gelson, Petrov, Caicedo, Sturridge. Subs: Schmeichel, Ball, Onuoha, Ireland, Hamann, Bojinov, Etuhu.

FC Midtjylland: Heinze, Afriyie, Califf, Reid, Poulsen, Borring, Florescu, Thygesen, Olsen, Salami, Jude. Subs: Raska, Madsen, Furuseth Olsen, Marcic, Ipsa, Flinta, Babantude.

Welcome to Eastlands where Mark Hughes' Manchester City welcome Danish outfit FC Midtjylland for the first leg of their second round qualifier for the Uefa Cup.

Up for grabs is a place in the first round of the competition proper.
